Palos Verdes High School's Doom Buggy! We talked to the parents of
the PV team's technical lead. They said every line of code had been
written by students, except for some device drivers, which is really
amazing. I mean, I work with very smart people writing robotics
software and we have a hard time getting anything to work.

The Doom Buggy's first attempt to start wasn't successful, so they got
another chance. On the second try it exited the launch chute, went 10
feet and then took a hard left turn and rammed one of the concrete
barriers, knocking it over.
